2001 Land Rover Defender
90
Tremendously in vogue and tidy TD5 showing just
130,567 miles in nice, honest, usable shape
Dating
from February 2001 this tidy and appealing Defender looks to have been supplied
new in Northern Ireland looking at its registration history and comes to us in
short wheel base 90inch form. The current Devon based owner has enjoyed the
truck since November 2017 covering c.25,000 miles in this time, the vehicle
having been driven to the sale without issue.
Considered to be in largely
original order, the truck appears uncommonly clean both underneath and atop,
evidently being the subject of love and affection with a few added extras
including wing top checker plate with stand up vents, black light surrounds and
grill, black side steps, 16inch alloy wheels with chunky Cooper Discoverer
STT-Pro tyres, twin vinyl seats with central cubby box containing additional
speakers, 3-spoke steering wheel, aluminium gear knobs, smart tailored rubber
matting, Defender branded internal door handles and work table in the rear with
folding seats.
Showing 130,657 miles, which is modest for a Defender of
this age, the truck looks to be in good order bar the few minor cosmetics as
pictured. The history file includes the V5C which suggests just 1 former keeper
– however, an Experian HPI check suggests this to be incorrect, and it to have
had 6 former keepers. In addition, we find an Irish NCT (MOT) test certificate
from 2011, 4 old MOTs, couple of sundry bills and information on a Thatcham Cat
1 alarm system.
The current MOT certificate is not on file but is valid
until January 2022 with 2 advisories recorded for slight play in an offside
front wheel bearing and an oil leak, not excessive. Buyers please note, there is
a mileage discrepancy at MOT in December 2016, but the mileage either side of
this looks to be correct, so we assume it was noted incorrectly at 19,254
miles.
Ready to be enjoyed, these TD5 Defenders are hot stuff right now
hence the prices have been rising exponentially!
